Simons Awards for Graduate Students in TCS

The Simons FoundationDivision for Mathematics and the Physical Sciences invites applications for the Simons Award for Graduate Students in Theoretical Computer Scienceprogram. These awards will be made to graduate students with an outstanding track record of research accomplishments. To be eligible the applicant must be a graduate student who has completed two, three or four years at a U.S. or Canadian institution of higher education. A track record of outstanding results in theoretical computer science is the key criterion. Deadline: February 7, 2013.

Another upcoming Simons deadline (January 31, 2013) is for the Collaboration Grants for Mathematicians program, which will make a large number of grants to accomplished, active researchers who do not otherwise have access to substantial research funding that supports travel and visitors.
